Let's see...we did have a Pal. We also had Beany, Czar (Czaressa Sabrina Garnet, to give her her full Registered Irish Setter name), Chicker (Czar's daughter), Andy...but no Fido. The neighbor's dog (who once bit me on the leg) was named Fluffo, but not Fido.

In the Army our team had Flunk'em (we were an inspection team) and Flunky once bit the Officer of the Day, which endeared him to everyone.

Never known a Fido, Rover, or Spot (damned or otherwise).
